A touching cinema evening at Obenkino Cottbus

AS IF IT WERE EASY brings a sensitive love story to the screen of Obenkino in Cottbus on May 24, 2026, at 8:00 PM. The debut feature film by Milan Skrobanek tells of closeness, courage, and a relationship that withstands external boundaries. The screening is designed as an inclusive cinema experience: with subtitles for deaf and hard-of-hearing people and audio description via the GRETA app. ([cottbus.de](https://cottbus.de/veranstaltungen/als-waere-es-leicht-obenkino-in-cottbus-5/))

When language is born anew

At the center are Kati and Florian, two people who perceive their world in very different ways. The film shows how a unique language grows from encounters—beyond words and gestures. This sensitive narrative style makes the event experience at Obenkino particularly special: focused, emotional, and close to the audience.

A film with attitude and resonance

AS IF IT WERE EASY was nominated for the German Screenplay Award in 2023. The production focuses on true inclusion on set, supported by Deaf supervisors and sign language interpreters. Critics also praise the film's emotional power; Radio Eins describes it as a touching love story without kitsch. This creates authority and trust for a cinema evening with special depth.
